About This Feature

Overview

Add Shortcut to is a document management feature for multidimensional tables in WPS Office for macOS. It lets you add the current table to a selected cloud storage path as a shortcut for faster access.

This feature helps you:

place frequently used multidimensional tables in easier-to-reach locations,
organize shortcut entries by project or team folder,
